Changi
Episodes 1-6
| Changi is a story of Australian mateship, of boys who become men in a climate of fear, who react to the terror around them in the way they know best. They laugh at it... and survive.
Written by John Doyle (one half of Roy & HG) and starring Stephen Curry, Leon Ford, Anthony Hayes, Bill Kerr, Desmond Kelly, Geoff Morrell, Matthew Newton, Mark Priestley, Charles 'Bud' Tingwell, Matthew Whittet and Frank Wilson, this series follows six young Australians who go to war full of confidence and bravado. When Singapore falls in 1942 they are marched off to Changi where they survive three-and-a-half years of life as prisoners of war. Humour is their key to survival. |
